Description

A bonus episode made from spilled over energy/excitement from recording a forthcoming interview with Judithe Registre of inclusivus.org

After a Saturday morning of back to back recordings both of which were high energy and inspiring, Kerry-Ann had so much energy left over that she had to record this bonus episode. She has been writing a book that she decided to put on hold but wanted to share an overview of the chapters aka "principles" called "Believe In Those Who Believe In You." The interview with Judithe is the latest example of this principle.
